That Billy Mitchell and the bird who used to play Curly Watt's wife in Corrie (not Raquel, the other one. Think she was a policewoman) have split up after five years of marriage: "They just grew apart and thought it would be best to separate. They both want to make it clear no one else is involved. It just didn't work out"... That Vernon Kay has pulled out of (OOOH ERRR, SUGGESTIVE *waggles bushy brows*) hosting his Radio 1 show this Saturday: "He's asked BBC bosses if he can miss the show as he wants to sort things out. We're waiting to hear back, but we expect they will find someone to stand in. Obviously it will be difficult for him to broadcast live with all the stuff about his sex texts flying around at the moment. It could be uncomfortable for him - especially when he asks listeners to send in texts"... The Sun reports that: "Kay, 35, has a £2million two-year deal with ITV which is up in a few weeks. Station bosses are quizzing his agents about his text obsession before signing an extension. TV is offering around £500,000 to front at least two shows - Family Fortunes and The Whole 19 Yards this year. Yesterday as Kay stayed at home in Beaconsfield, Bucks, Tess pulled a newspaper column due to focus on their happy marriage (eeeeeep). But the 40-year-old is set to appear on both The One Show and This Morning next week to plug her new book - which talks about her family life"... Funny, they had her down as a 37-year-old when the story first broke two days ago... Finding out your husband in a wally will age you significantly... That Ewan McGregor has been pictured walking arm 'n arm with his 27-year-old Beginners co-star, Melanie Laurent, after they had dinner in Paris... That a spokesperson feebled across this by way of explanation: "The night was freezing"... That's sure to keep his wife of 15 years warm... That Jennifer Garner had this to say of dolphins when on Letterman on Tuesday night: "I had my feet dangling in the water. And the dolphin came and swam right over my foot. I thought, 'That was so cool!' The dolphin started swimming around my leg faster and faster until something happened... I said to the trainer, 'I think the dolphin just peed.' He said, 'No, ma'am, no'"... That Mike was due to interview Jennifer Garner and Jessica Biel today in London but they're both stuck in a snow storm in New York... I won't relay that dolphin story, that would be rubbing it in... That Heidi Montag is casting her demure Christian ways aside to whip out her plastic bags for Playboy: "She is currently speaking with (Playboy photographer) Matthew Rolston (about) a steamy, soapy, shower concept showing her boobs through the shower door. The figure being discussed for the exclusive is in the seven figures. She could use the money, and she's finally ready to pose topless"... That sentence should be the other way round... That Peter Andre is "disgusted" by the pictures of his 2-year-old daughter dolled up in full make up and fake lashes... That he'd want to get used to it... That Alec Baldwin was "rushed to hospital" after his 14-year-old selfish little pig of a daughter rang 911 for him: "The 30 Rock star was taken in for treatment last night after his 14-year-old daughter called 911. It is not known why Baldwin was taken to hospital and his status is unknown, although Today In New York reports that he agreed to be examined and treated. The 51-year old was later allowed to go home"... That George Michael brought himself to police attention again, by wandering out of his London home without shutting the door: "A 999 call was made by a private security guard who informed police that the door to the North London property had been left open. It is thought that the incident, which is said to have occurred in the early hours of Tuesday morning, came to an end when the star was found safe and well in a nearby property following a brief search by police. However, one neighbour commented: "You'd be utterly mad to leave your door open in the middle of the night. This is London"... Eight joints a day will do that to you... That the 7th Annual Woman's Day Red Dress Awards took place at the Allen Room in New York yesterday... That Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman seemed quite happy to wear pink instead...
